Submitted April 10, 1972
Decided May 3, 1972.
Hester & Hester, Frank B. Hester, for appellant.
Arthur K. Bolton, Attorney General, Harold N. Hill, Jr., Executive Assistant Attorney General, Courtney Wilder Stanton, W. Hensell Harris, Jr., Assistant Attorneys General, for appellee.
He also alleged that the forfeiture proceedings were in violation of the due process provisions of the State and Federal Constitutions in that he was denied numerous stated rights and procedures.
Upon the habeas corpus hearing the evidence was conflicting in some particulars.
. However, the habeas corpus court found that the petitioner was given notice of the charges against him; that upon the hearing they were read to him; that he was given an opportunity to ask about them but made no effort to call any witnesses; and that after hearing testimony of a custodial officer and that of appellant the Administrative Disciplinary Committee was authorized to find that he had committed sodomy; and that the foregoing procedure was neither arbitrary nor capricious, and met the requirements of due process of law. We agree.
Therefore the judgment denying the writ of habeas corpus and remanding him to the custody of the respondent warden was proper.
Judgment affirmed.
All the Justices concur.
